Day 24: November 19, 2010.

I love Fridays :)  And the fact that this one has finally come makes me a happy, happy, happy girl!  My family comes into the city tomorrow for a few days, I'm now only four days away from Thanksgiving break and I--WE!--have come to the end of another busy, hectic work week!  That's the best part! :)

I was done with all classes at 3:30 like usual, but when I usually go back to my room and start my late afternoon/evening of chill time (usually come Friday my body and brain are much and just want to relax and do nothing!), I decided to get myself down to the gym and do a quick workout.  I'm really glad I did.  Some people look at me like I'm crazy when I say "I'm going to the gym" due to the amount of dancing I do on a regular basis, but sometimes it's good to shake things up a little with something outside of a dance studio.  Now I can be a very lazy girl.  The big school-wide gym is located in my own building and I find myself struggling quite often to get myself down there, even if for only a quick half hour session.  I need to make myself remember how awesome it feels upon completion...I always feel totally revitalized and re-energized afterward!  Also, seeing as, A) the gym's, again, in my own building and B) there are TV's on each cardio machine (If I'm going to sit on the couch and watch TV all night, why not catch a half hour show while moving around a little, too?!) I really have no excuses!  There's no need to overdo it, but every so often for less than an hour at a time is a great supplement to my daily ballet and modern classes.  I'm definitely glad I used this late afternoon break today a little more wisely than usual because now I'm feeling good and ready to go for the second of three performances we have this weekend that begins a little later on!  I love the feeling of being healthy and I love the happiness that always accompanies that feeling! :)

On this Friday evening, a good workout and refreshed energy make me happy :)
